kac & gleason: No, I didn't do the colour matching myself - the frameset was painted by Parlee themselves (to my design) and Sun Graphics in Melbourne Australia did the colour matching on the groupset.

deermatt: yes, I like the crankset a lot - far, far better than the old SRAM Red flexy horror!

One tip: use a Garmin stem mount band in place of the USE Exposure light strap and you won't draw so much attention to your rear light. You can also mount the light on top of the saddle rails (turn the mount over) to hide it under the saddle a bit more.

That is an invaluable tip - I can't believe I didn't think of that myself! Thank you, I'll do that now.

Yes, it's very Baum-esque (and not by accident) - the guys at Parlee produced a Lambo Green Z5i that had paint based on the Baum style - they were having a bit of a gentle dig at Baum. We ended up getting that particular frameset in our store. I liked the design simplicity, but felt it needed a couple of extra touches - hence the pin-strip on the top tube/head tube and the orange inside the fork legs/stays.
